westhuller Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 What make of turntable is that? It started off as a Rega Planar 3 but I had it moded at Inspire Hi Fi near Chesterfield. All that's left is the sub platter, bearing and motor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Futtocks Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 It started off as a Rega Planar 3 but I had it moded at Inspire Hi Fi near Chesterfield. All that's left is the sub platter, bearing and motor. I thought it might be something like that - it didn't look like any production turntable I'm familiar with. Mine's a bog-standard NAD 533 (effectively a re-badged Planar 2) with a Rega Elys cartridge and running through a Cambridge phono stage. It sounds pretty good for what it is. I was going to upgrade to something better this month, but my new laptop and DAC used up the available funds. Next year...

Futtocks Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Had my first listen to 'Malpensa', The Nits' new album last night. Much less acoustic content than their previous two or three releases, with interesting sounds and textures all over the place. The first impression was that there were slightly too many songs in plain vanilla 4/4 though. A complex album that I'm sure will reward repeated listening.

l'angelo mysterioso Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Mick Green in fine form latching onto punk by middle aged men is a bit iffy though. and those boots. What a great band all the same. WELCOME TO THE ROYSTON VASEY SUPER LEAGUE 2015 Keeping it local Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ullman Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Mick Green in fine form latching onto punk by middle aged men is a bit iffy though. and those boots. What a great band all the same. My grandad had a pair of boots like that for the Arctic fishing grounds. I'm not sure Mick's ever saw active service on the high seas.
